The Main Event a.k.a Christmas 4 of 7

All of our fun and festivities have me behind on my blog posts! Here goes my recap on actual Christmas Eve and Christmas morning. In sum, it was so special and magical. It's crazy, but I can still remember what it felt like to be a kid at Christmas and to be able to provide our kids with the same experiences means the world to me.

On Christmas Eve Stef came over during nap time, while Jimmy had Danny at their house, so she could help me wrap Santa presents. And thank god she did because we wrapped and organized for hours! When they got back, I put baked ziti in the oven and we went for a golf cart ride to take in the lights and look for Santa's sleigh in the sky. After dinner we set out cookies and tucked the boys in bed! While Jimmy and I got everything set up we watched "Office Christmas Party".

Santa's coming. Let's hug, so he thinks we like each other.

In PJs and ready for bed!

Love Danny's little picture and note

Santa came (circa 10pm Christmas Eve)

And left a special note for Danny and matching RC Land Rovers

About 6:30am on Christmas morning we heard the thump of Danny jumping off his bunk bed ladder and then the pitter patter of feet heading towards the stairs. Luckily Santa put up a "rope" and stop sign to deter them from coming down without us.

Here is the video of them coming down the stairs...

And here are pics...

Loving his scooter, so he and Danny don't have to fight over the other one

So happy!

With his "pet" chameleon, Fernando
